The whole "king Tut is related to half of western white men" concept was a MARKETING SCAM to get whites to check to see if they are related to King TUT.

"If the claims were true, it would put King Tut in a genetic profile group shared by more than half of Western European men. That would make those men relatives — albeit distant ones — of the pharaoh."

"The haplogroup R1b1a2, which iGENEA claims includes King Tut, arose 9,500 years ago in the Black Sea region. How Tut's ancestors would have gotten from that region to Egypt is unknown"

"After a few successful clashes with the Pharaohs over the control of Syria, Mitanni sought peace with Egypt and an alliance was formed. During the reign of Shuttarna in the early 14th century BC the relationship was very amicable, and he sent his daughter Gilu-Hepa to Egypt for a marriage with Pharaoh Amenhotep III."

"Later on, Egypt and Mitanni became allies, and King Shuttarna II himself was received at the Egyptian court. Amicable letters, sumptuous gifts, and letters asking for sumptuous gifts were exchanged. Mitanni was especially interested in Egyptian gold. This culminated in a number of royal marriages: the daughter of King Artatama I was married to Thutmose IV. Kilu-Hepa, or Gilukhipa, the daughter of Shuttarna II, was married to Pharaoh Amenhotep III, who ruled in the early 14th century BC. In a later royal marriage Tadu-Hepa, or Tadukhipa, the daughter of Tushratta, was sent to Egypt."

Your response is filled with SPECULATION.

The article that I posted was a fact.

Do you know the difference?

If that DNA company used random genetic markers on computer monitor in a freakin Discovery movie to determine TUT's heritage....do I really need to go on?

They had no actual DNA sample from king tut!....NONE

Come on....

Just admit that you made a mistake.

You are too prideful.

It is quite laughable how people are still holding on to the "TUT was western European" myth.

Re: The Ancient Egyptians were White People. How does that makes black people feel??

Blacks never created a civilization such as the one Egypt whereas Caucasians created very similar civilizations very close by.

Blacks never built anything like the pyramids before and they never built anything like them after. White people did. Anyone researching Egypt and trying to figure out what race the ancients where would come to the conclusion they were caucasian based on the fact that Negroids never did anything like it since and didn't so anything like it before. The fact the ancients describe themselves as white in written language is a clue. Negroids never created a written language. Egyptians also clearly state that Negroids were their enemy and described them as black skin.

England did not describe the French as white skinned people when talking about their enemy. WHy would they? They were both white. THe only reason Senusret made the distinction is because the Nubians were a Negroid people who had black skin and ancient Egyptians didn't

Get over it Negroes. Ancient Egypt was a creation by white people. It is the Negro who lies about it.

You do realize that I support the Sub-Saharan origins of Kemet, right? Notice my previous messages were all in support of that. I was pointing out that if the family Tutankhamun came from does have any caucasian DNA it's most likely from the Mitannians, who they married often at the time. The Mitanni (in modern Syria) appear to be linked to the western Europeans since that is where many of their ancestors came from. And I was also pointing out that it would be quite a distant relationship, considering the people who left the area where modern Syria is located left nearly 10,000 years ago. Almost 6,700 years before Tutankhamun was born. There is another DNA analysis that makes it clear that Tutankhamun's family is largely of Sub-Saharan descent. The features of the busts and statues make it clear what their dominant genes were. Many of the descendants of Amenhotep III resemble people from Ethiopia, Eritrea and Sudan.

I personally don't give a fuck. You haven't done shit with your life OP or you wouldn't be here beating this dead horse. I feel sorry for you OP. You're a complete loser with nothing positive to give back to the world. It's truly a sad state of affairs (that is, one trying to prop himself up as being part of some "superior" race, and yet contributing nothing, having nothing, and being nothing).

Re: The Ancient Egyptians were White People. How does that makes black people feel??

White people always trying to claim a culture and a civilization that was not theres, sorry white people, black people started all the earlist civilization on this planet.

This is what the culture does they occupy and then give the countries their names

1 But these took this counsel among themselves, that they would leave the multitude of the heathen, and go forth into a further country, where never mankind dwelt,42 That they might there keep their statutes, which they never kept in their own land.43 And they entered into Euphrates by the narrow places of the river.44 For the most High then shewed signs for them, and held still the flood, till they were passed over.45 For through that country there was a great way to go, namely, of a year and a half: and the same region is called Arsareth.46 Then dwelt they there until the latter time; and now when they shall begin to come,:knoup:

Unless you have provided your DNA for testing you can't realy add any creditable info to this thread. As I have said else where in various threads Put Up or Shut Up! Have your Dna Tested then come back here and tell us what you found out about your self! Have testing done and find out where you fit in the scheme of things.............

Re: The Ancient Egyptians were White People. How does that makes black people feel??

Thats all rite for you ,but there are some of us that just can't settle for that ole cliche' I want to know the truth and the only way to that truth is DNA.It's what makes the Universe go round.Whats the matter can't hear the carosel music?........................

Re: The Ancient Egyptians were White People. How does that makes black people feel??

I dated a guy from that area of Africa before. The blacks there are beautiful. Like the pharaohs. Abit middle eastern. Some Africans are shortish round and far. but these Arab Africans are tall with high cheek bones and well proportioned features. Many people on this forum don't mix with different cultures. If you did you would recognise such features from people,i'm places such as Sudan.

Re: The Ancient Egyptians were White People. How does that makes black people feel??

Sorry white people don't have That kind of beauty. If you are saying they servic were mixed race then fine I can believe,that. But pure white , no way. I have white DNA doesn't mean that i am white however.
